Subject: [B.A.T.M.A.N.] [PATCH 1/2] batman-adv: the skb has not to be freed in recv_roam_adv()
Date: Thu, 16 Jun 2011 00:32:24 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1308177145-21191-1-git-send-email-ordex@autistici.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <201106152056.18072.lindner_marek@yahoo.de>

In recv_roam_adv(), in case of error the skb is freed and then
NET_RX_DROP is returned. This makes the caller function wrongly invoke
kfree_skb() again. To avoid this double free recv_tt_query() has to
always return NET_RX_DROP and not to free the skb.
